Hi All,

Looking for an freelance accountant who can manage all invoices, tax and company finance in a luxury property company based in London.

Ideally be based in our office and work full time on payments and managing supplier payments and client invoices.

Many thanks,
Daniel

So as part of the "remuneration package" you allow him to use your business premises free of charge?

I actually don't see too many freelancers willing to do that, to be honest.
If they need to work on other clients' records, they wiould prefer to either do that at the client's premises or at their own office (where they will have files, paperwork etc). I know, I'm a self employed accountant and that is how I work.

2 to 3 days a week is actually a massive commitment for a free lancer. In fact, it would probably be extremely difficult for a freelancer with many clients to do this. What you seem to be actually looking for is a part time employee.
